Welcome to Term 4! We are continuing our learning in English, using imaginative texts to explore characteristics and features, such as characters, beginnings and endings in stories and rhyme in poetry. We have also been exploring the connection between words, objects and images in stories and information texts. As a class, we use comprehension strategies to understand and discuss texts listened to and viewed or read independently.

Currently, in maths we are participating in 2D and 3D shape activities by matching shapes with like shapes of different sizes and colours, discussing how many sides or edges, corners and faces. Also, sorting 3D everyday objects and packages into groups, playing shape bingo and making shapes with ropes in the Quad! 

Our science experiments are always fun and exciting to observe. This term we are still looking at materials used in experiments and how they change. So far, we have done a Magic Milk Experiment and experiments with Jelly and Skittles. Once we have discussed the material’s properties, according to our senses, we write up our experiment and sometimes draw and label before and after observations. As you can see we are very involved learners!

Kind regards,

Miss Libby, Miss Michelle and students.
